Overview:

It’s important to consider life cycle costs – including planned and unexpected maintenance as well as future growth – when choosing a water storage solution. The initial planning stage is the best time to gather input from experienced parties (experts and suppliers) and factual experience from actual industry data. The second-best time is when you are faced with mounting repair costs on a water storage asset. Understanding key benefits and pitfalls of common water storage solutions can help you make the best-informed decision for today and the future.

At the completion of this one-hour OJT session, participants will be able to demonstrate the following:

• • • • • • • • • • An understanding of what to consider when choosing a water storage solution.
                  • An understanding of what to consider when creating a long-term Asset Management Plan.
                  • How to calculate Lifecycle Costing of various water storage solutions.
                  • How considering Lifecycle Costing early in a project can help you avoid costly mistakes later.
                  • Identify differences in water storage tank types to understand why some technologies are better than others for certain applications.
